Hello, everyone and happy Monday!! It's my turn to post on the Wild Orchid Crafts blog and I'd love for you to stop by if you have time :) I have a couple of Christmas cards to share with you today featuring flower making foam and other items you can find in the Wild Orchid Crafts store.

I chose non-traditional Christmas colors for my cards, including the Pale Peach Flower Making Foam I used to create the poinsettias. For the centers, I used Ivory Small Double Headed Pearl Stamens. The papers are from an old My Mind's Eye Christmas stack.

I also used pale peach Cottage Roses and Open Roses, White Frosted Berry Spray, White Pearl Spray and Self-Adhesive Pearls.

Happy Thursday and December!! Wow...Christmas really will be here soon!! A new month means it's time for a new monthly challenge at DL.ART and the theme as always is, Anything Goes You could always substitute a Thank You card. If you use the code LF222, Diana will give you a 10% discount to shop at DL.ART. And if you haven't done so already, check out her new store here!!

For my cards, I used Floral Cover Plates A and B from Altenew. I love these!!

I popped foam tape between the layers for added dimension.

This beautiful ribbon is Burnt Leaf from the Fall Bundle. I also used Twine from Diana's shop.

This beautiful ribbon is Pumpkin Spice from the Pumpkin Spice & Latte Bundle. The tag is from My Craft Spot and the sentiment is from K Andrew Designs (both are no longer in business).

Now it's your turn!! Head on over to DL.ART to see the amazing projects my design team sisters have created for today's challenge. Then link up your Anything Goes project. I can't wait to see what you create :)
